Is there a book at the other campus that you need but don't really want to go get? Or you won't be at the other campus for another week but really need the book now? Then try Intercampus Book Delivery!

How does it work?!

Johnnie needs a book from Clemens Library but doesn't have time to run over to get it. He can fill out the Intercampus Book Delivery form and have it delivered to Alcuin Library by the next day. We'll send him an email to stop by to pick it up once it arrives. It's that easy!

And we've made it even EASIER for you!

Instead of cutting/pasting the information about the book you need, go to WorldCat Local. Once you see the title of the book you want, select it; once the record opens, select the Find It button. There is a link to Intercampus Book Delivery which will push all the information about the author, title, etc. into a form for you!
